So… is Supreme Court just going to roll over after making an order?
I mean I assume yes but I would hope literally anyone in the government whose job it is to do something about this would…
Every single function of government that was intended to prevent something like this has failed. Different tools will be necessary to address this.
Ah, that's the beauty of it. The order was to "facilitate" his release, which they've already said means they only have to make it easier for him to return. If El Salvador doesn't return him, that's the end of their responsibilities. They don't have to do jack shit, and the supreme court doesn't have to enforce anything. Everybody wins (except democracy and freedom in the US, but that's a small price to pay for a bunch of fascist goons to save face).
Yes, they've been going out of their way to thread the needle of not declaring the constitution dead while simultaneously allowing Donald to be king. I've heard that they're trying to avoid triggering a constitutional crisis because they're afraid they'll lose, but to roll over and not enforce the constitution provides functionally no difference than if they had lost a constitutional crisis.
Oh, it makes a very big difference... to them. If they pick a fight with Trump and lose, they go to the gulag. If they appease him, they might not go to the gulag.
How are they to enforce it?
Same question goes to international courts frequently. Can rule all you like, it's all meaningless if you can't enforce it and those subject to your rulings don't care enough to listen.
they can deputize the citizenry
Assign those in contempt of court to the El Salvador gulag to help them "facilitate"
Who's gonna do that? Like, who's gonna start rounding them up? The DoJ is on Trump's side, and the Judicial branch needs them to actually enforce shit.
